500+ games played, $13MM in career earnings, and a Stanley Cup ring is a hell of a run for an UDFA who wasn't offered an NHL contract until 24 after a year in the AHL. Smart dude who could easily transition into coaching or front office work if he wanted to.

Ahh...Lovejoy. I can't read tweets at work, so I was trying to use context clues to get it...I ran through a couple guys, didn't have confidence in them...Lovejoy was not a guy I was likely to come up with that criteria anyhow...

So no lockout?

Stars are getting $11M. 4th liners are getting $3.5M. The players are happy.

NHL network had on Pens vs. Jackets from 2014 double OT game yesterday. Originally thought I was gonna get to see some vintage dominating Pens. The. I saw Bylsma and the bad memories came back. Just depressing.

Preseason - 13 days away
Regular season - 1 month

Has this been the longest offseason since 2006?

Postby **Gaucho** » Tue Sep 03, 2019 11:15 am

Feels like it.

Postby **Gaucho** » Tue Sep 03, 2019 11:16 am

Well, since 2013.

It's been so long that it feels like the franchise doesn't really exist. Also, **** trade someone already.

Postby **MR25** » Tue Sep 03, 2019 4:43 pm

Got an invite to Pens Summer Sticks at TopGolf.

I'm half-expecting to either be paired with Jack Johnson or someone that's going to get traded the next day.

But at least you'd get to get out of Ohio.
